If they had, you'd likely see a Druse/Maronite enclave as an Israeli ally there on the border instead of Hezbollah.<br /><br />Regards,<br />RobRobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13332213651195340500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-14916429371609796782011-11-24T15:16:15.795+02:002011-11-24T15:16:15.795+02:00This is extremely interesting.

Unfortunately, I would expect that if Israel actually implements the plan, then Fatah and Hamas will deal with it in their usual manner -- with the quiet support of the US, the EU, and the UN.<br /><br />It's not without cause that Al Jabri went out of his way to insist that "I am not your collaborator. I am not Antoine Lahad or Bashir Gemayel". He's saying that because he's praying that he won't end up like them. But most likely, his fate will, in the worst case, be just like that of Gemayel (six feet under); or in the best case, like Lahad (in exile running a hummus joint in Tel Aviv).Lurkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02712938121915827845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-48533507059587074382011-11-24T15:14:42.099+02:002011-11-24T15:14:42.099+02:00Is there any verification of this story from other...Is there any verification of this story from other sources? It reminds me a lot of the "Iraqi leadership" that was ready to take over when they removed Sadam... but that leadership was not wanted by the people and never made any headway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-49031700337895750312011-11-24T15:10:01.155+02:002011-11-24T15:10:01.155+02:00This is one step closer to my suggestion of a 12 s...This is one step closer to my suggestion of a 12 state plan, which I think would do Israel a whole lot of good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-65458007751183485032011-11-24T13:54:04.571+02:002011-11-24T13:54:04.571+02:00Yossi Beilin and Shimon Peres must despise this id...Yossi Beilin and Shimon Peres must despise this idea, since they always say there is no alternative to Oslo. <br /><br />Now that an alternative is presented we see the emperor has no clothes.Drornoreply@blogger.com
